Cooking with limited success and exploring on two wheels

About

Well hey there! This blog is meant to document my kitchen creations and bike explorations.

I currently live in Ottawa and work for an environmental non-profit organization doing Transportation Demand Management programs. It is a surprisingly great place to be if you like cycling, music, and loitering in parks and cafes.

I am not a talented cook but enjoy coming up with interesting vegetarian creations, most of which involve legumes, squash, and/or avocado. I am known to bake sweets with vegetables which is frowned upon by certain family members, but that won’t stop me.

I am also pursuing a master’s degree in Urban Planning at the University of Toronto. Zoning bylaws are my jam! (Not.) Sometimes I love what I’m studying and other times I just want to switch educational paths and become a translator of French poetry. Perhaps one day I’ll find a way to combine the two?

Thanks for leaving me a message – I love meeting other Toronto bloggers, too… Especially when they are into biking, as well!! 🙂 Sadly, I parked my bike for the winter on December 23 and I won’t take it out until the salt is gone… but until then I hope my bixi membership will suffice, even if it doesn’t take me to/from home at all. I look forward to following your blog. 🙂

Keep on cycling, slogging in the snow, blogging, cooking and of course –eating! (That’s why we bike. :)) From a former Kitchener-Waterloo resident, former U of W student (2 yrs. before transferring), former Torontonian who stiil loves to visit Toronto where most of family is still there.

But am still a cyclist after all this..just in Western Canada who also blogs cycling, food, travel and stuff.
